I want to have 2 fans in my case , 1 infront and 1 in back , the fans are 3pin fans , the mobo has 1x4pin case fan header , i was wondering if i can use 4pin to 2x4pin splitter to connect the fans to the motherboard?

Thank You for the reply , do You think i'll be fine with just 1 120mm front fan if im using i3-6100 and gtx960?[/quotemsg]

use 2 fans better

you can connect the fan to the power supply no big deal

The Motherboard fan header can take 1A 12V (12W) total on most motherboards (not all) , if you connect 2 fans and they take more power it will damage the motherboard .
